The NIAD Center for Art & Disabilities will be holding a fundraiser sponsored by Draper & Esquin Wine & Spirits at the newly opened Cannery in Richmond's Marina Bay Area. Advanced tickets for this food and wine fundraiser are $25/person and can be purchased by calling NIAD at (510)620-0290. Tickets may also be purchased for $30 at the door. The Cannery is a proposed custom crush/shared use wine facility, tasting room, restaurant, and commercial events kitchen located at 1200 Harbour Way South.

All proceeds go directly to the NIAD Center for Art & Disabilities, an urban art studio, gallery, and gift shop serving adults with disabilities in Contra Costa, Alameda, and Marin counties.  Its studio is home to over 60 practicing artists. The artists' work can be seen throughout the lively studio. The onsite gallery, with portfolios of each artist, is a resource center for casual collectors, connoisseurs, and anyone who is interested in seeing the cutting edge work of NIAD's visionary artists.
